Should you shorten your film?
If considering submitting your film to film festivals, then this is the most important piece of guidance I can give you, it’s the easiest thing to do, but the worst thing to face up to.

Painting with Fire
By the time I picked up my first Conan the Barbarian paperback, Robert E. Howard had been dead by his own hand for at least 35 years and Frank Frazetta was in the neighborhood of my current chronological count. Howard’s novels were enjoying a resurgence of popularity in the 70’s and Frazetta’s art was to be found on book covers, movie posters and music albums. I have to admit I have no clear memory of the story itself nor did I have a bolt out of the blue revelation moment that I recall to this day about the artwork. All I do know is that I was hooked and over the course of several years, bought the novels and the calendars and the posters. They graced my shelves and walls through many years and many moves, to my mother’s evident disgust, and somewhere along the way got left in boxes and garages and faded from my provenance.

Unlike my friends who were interested in the hot spots, I stopped in front of the Mexican National Pavilion and walked along the snaking line waiting to see Frida Kahlo, 1907-1954), The Wounded Fawn (1946). The painting is a self-portrait of a deer with a human face. Nine arrows are inserted in the body, and the blood is flowing. The fawn is running stubbornly in the forest.
